A man who had lost his wedding band while gathering fruit more than half a century ago has finally found it. <\/p>\n

It was a present from his late mother on the occasion of his 21st birthday, but he lost it in 1968 while picking strawberries. <\/p>\n

Dave Radley, a retired railroad engineer, spent several heartbroken hours searching for his lost ring among the hedges.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

When he realized the ring was missing that morning, he was collecting strawberries in the field behind a friend’s father’s house to sell. The 9-carat gold ring he’d been given as a gift a few weeks prior didn’t quite fit. <\/p>\n

Fortunately, a metal detectorist who had been given a tip by the landowner about the missing ring discovered the miraculous find just last month.<\/p>\n

Dave got a call from Peter, the brother of his friend and current landowner, 54 years after the signet ring went missing. <\/p>\n

Peter told his employee, a metal detectorist, about the missing ring and he asked permission to search the exact area where it had been dropped. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Dave drove to Leicestershire later that week to pick it up after finding it buried seven inches deep with only one tiny scratch ready to be polished off. <\/p>\n

\u2018The ring might not have altered, but its owner has,\u2019 said Radley, \u2018so it’s very tight fit.\u2019 I had to get it altered somewhat because I can only slip it on with a lot of effort. But it doesn’t matter since I’m just happy to have it back.<\/p>\n

I remember spending hours looking for it in the fields where my poor family formerly lived. My mom wasn’t mad at me, but she was sad because I was so distressed. <\/p>\n

I still can’t put into words the incredible feeling I had when I got the call from Peter.<\/p>\n
